Pop?! No way...!  omg JoJo we are so very sorry to hear the news that Pop passed away.  You had mentioned he wasn't feeling well but he's always been such a "rock" that we figured he would bounce back.  He was the absolute sweetest and most wonderful man and we're really going to miss him.  We always enjoyed our visits so much and loved listening to all his stories.  We pray you find comfort in the many wonderful memories you shared throughout the years ... and know that you were "the best" daughter and always did everything you could for him!  You are in our thoughts and prayers during this time of sorrow.  With Our Deepest Sympathy and Love... Nina, Claudia and Angela Mancuso

I was deeply saddened to hear of Mr. Tangari's passing. He was truly one of a kind and I will never forget the many happy times I shared with him and the family. I am truly sorry for your loss and I am keeping all of you in my prayers.

We will remember Vinnie as a gentle person with a warm smile. His later years here in Florida  seemed a perfect fit for your dad. We and your many friends were privileged to have known Vinnie. We are certain your dad was grateful for your love, kindness and devotion. 
Love you,
Chuck and Bob

I will always treasure the times we shared...you & pop, my mom & I talking
Italian, laughing...enjoying each others company. Your dad was awesome and I will truly miss him.

Dear Mary, Frankie and family,

May you  find comfort in knowing that Pop lived a long and fruitful life.  He was one of a kind.

Love,
Jack

May the wonderful memories that you have of your Dad keep you smiling for many years to come and may he rest in eternal peace.

It was always such a pleasure to be with Vinnie with his family.  He took so much pride in his children and grandchildren and whenever they were all together, you could just feel the love and devotion they shared.  That love for him will always be in our hearts!

So sorry to get your sad news and you have my heartfelt sympathy.  Your Dad was always sweet and charming whenever we met.  May he now be at peace.  

Love, Allie

He was a Truman!  He went through life like a lion, devoured everything.  I loved hearing him talk Italian or was it Muffy because it never sounded like my mother's Italian. I still refer to myself as Stoffelli. He encouraged me to finish college and I did.  Thanks to his attitude towards education, I have a terrific job.  He passed his love of good food to all who knew him.  I still eat many things he introduced me to and I love them all.  Thanks to him, I can't buy fresh mozzarella without my son eating it all.  And I love Italian bread with grapes, it really is a meal just like he used to say. And the peas in a pod, forget it. And I can't get enough mortadella.  I specifically miss goint to Sparky's with him.  Those were the best days, days with him.  He would never be quiet if he saw something wrong, he wasn't afraid of anyone or anything.  Truly a unique individual.  I guess I just admired him.  I am heartbroken but he will be with me the rest of my life just like my own mother & father.

We always had a great time with your Dad and he WILL be missed. I will especially miss that little wry grin he would get on his face and sparkle in his eyes when he thought we were funny... You know our hearts and minds are with you an your family. Thank you, Mary, for letting us know him.
Love, Jim & Nelson

It has been a pleasure knowing your father. Not sure if he really enjoyed coming to visit with me in case he might have to pay uncle Sam!! For the time i did spend with him and yourself he was always listening and paying attention to everything. He always seemed happy when he around my company. I liked your dad very much. My condolences. I'm sure he is resting happy.

Sleep well Mr. Tangari, forever in our hearts and our thoughts. 
John & Luke

We were very sorry to hear your Dad had passed. We remember the cruises we took with you and your Dad, and how much he enjoyed them. He was a kind and sweet gentleman who always had a smile. We know he loved his life, and his daughter who took very special care of him. I know he will be missed, but his Spirit will live on in you. 
With our Sincere Condlolences,
Moe Langlois and Walter Zawislak ( Pompano Beach)

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  We enjoyed many good times with your father on various holidays and cruises.  He will be missed and always remembered.
Ron and Bob

My first memory of Vinny is a Sunday afternoon at the head of the dinner table on Willow Ave in Hoboken. When someone said something funny, he would say, "I bust laugh."  I never forgot that.  Over the years we all had many occasions to "bust laugh" together, at Cosmos games, in Hoboken, and later here in Fort Lauderdale.  Our lives are richer for having known Vinny, not only for his laughter and good nature, but for his generosity and unfailing spirit.  Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family and many, many friends.  We loved him and will miss him.
Barry, Rock and Scotty

Our thoughts are with you and your family. What a kind gentle man your father was. You were all lucky to have him and he was lucky to have you. 
Thinking of you.
Jeff and Nick
